Description

Bags and Beers Cornhole Tournament

Over the years, the Autism Society of Maryland (AUSOM) has strived to serve its community in a way that is thoughtful, inspiring and, well, fun!  This AUSOM fundraising event is offered in the same spirit:  Bags and Beers Cornhole Tournament on Saturday, May 18, 2024 at Reckless Shepherd Brewing Co., 8895 McGaw Road, Columbia, MD.  The event will be held RAIN OR SHINE!

Join us!

Why Cornhole?! 
It’s a game that can be played in an indoor or outdoor setting by players of all skill levels. It encourages team spirit, friendly competition, and camaraderie. It's perfect for both novice and experienced players. It’s a way for enthusiastic, forward-thinking businesses, organizations, and individuals to show their support for the Autism community. Best of all, the proceeds from the event will stay in our service area, directly impacting the lives of local children and adults with Autism. Our goal is to raise $60,000!

How Do I Participate on May 18th?
There are two ways to participate:
1.  Register as a Tournament Team of Two: Teams consist of two (2) members participating in a double elimination tournament conducted by Justin Craige with the American Cornhole League.  Novice and experienced players are welcome!  Teams will be matched through a random process for bracket competition.  There will be trophies for our 1st, 2nd, 3rd place and Most Spirited teams!  
2.  Join us as a Spectator:  Not a cornhole player?  Come out and enjoy the day, great company, music, and competition.  We’ll have some boards set up for informal play! 

Register today!  Attendance is limited for teams and spectators. AUSOM will supply all the regulation boards and bags used in the tournament. However, you may purchase a set of customized boards for the event during event registration. AUSOM will make every effort to have customized boards ordered on or before April 14 to be available when bags fly on May 18.

What's Included in the Ticket Price?
Each participant (Team of Two or Spectator) will receive beverage and food coupons valued at $25 and a giveaway. Catering will be provided by Frisco and the Reckless Shepherd Brewing Co. Menu TBA. Beverage will include craft beer from The Reckless Shepherd Brewing Co., plus a selection of local wines and non-alcoholic beverages for non-beer drinkers. 

What Other Ways Can I Win?
Even if you're not lucky in cornhole, AUSOM is offering two other opportunities to win big. We are raffling off a Wheelbarrow of Cheer filled with beer, wine and a selection of liquor. The 50/50 Raffle offers the chance to win a minimum $500 cash prize!  Raffle tickets are $20 each or 6 for $100.  Raffle tickets can be purchased at the time of event registration, by visiting the Tournament Store, or on-site the day of the tournament.

Take Home a Customized Cornhole Board Set
AUSOM is selling Customized Cornhole Board Sets as an add-on during event registration or by visiting the Tournament Store. Event participation is not required for purchase ACL-regulation cornhole board sets with customized boards and 8 customized bags for $400. Pre-order by April 14, 2024 with your logo/artwork and have your customized board set for tournament play on May 18! For all other orders received after April 14, allow 4-6 weeks for delivery. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Autism Society of Maryland.
